About
The non cavitated white-spot lesion (WSL) occurs after sometime during fixed orthodontic treatments, and their treatment is mandatory before going into frank cavitation. The resin infiltration material (ICON, DMG, America) is considered to be the gold standard resin infiltrationmaterial used for WSL treatment. It is an efficient material in arresting WSLs and has high favorable esthetic recovery. Furthermore, biomaterials like bioactive glass adhesives HI-bond universal adhesive have always been used for replacement, repair and generation of dental hard tissues. The hypotheses of this study are:
Full description
After sample size calculations were carried out a total sample size of 150 teeth will be included (75 teeth will be treated with ICON; and 75 other teeth will be treated with HI-Bond universal].
Split mouth study design involves treating WSLs in two different quadrants in each participant. Treatments will be done according to manufacturer's instruction. The WSLs in the teeth of one quadrant will receive treatments with the ICON (DMG, America) , and the others in the opposite quadrant will receive treatments with the bioactive glass adhesive HI-Bond universal (MEDICLUS, south Korea).
Before receiving the treatment, the WSLs will be tested at baseline by Quantitative light-induced fluorescence (QLF) device then the test will be repeated at 1-month after the treatment for the quadrant that received bioactive glass adhesive.
